This resource has been put together in a big hurry so isn't as well-considered or polished as it could have been with more collaboration and specialist knowledge input. However, it should give an idea of the intended direction the message was trying to accomplish. This article, found by Thomas MARSHALL, provides rational for design consideration. Tom was keen to make the resources 'short and snappy' & thus be read: No one Reads Online

One worth a bo-peep - At Colleen's last iConnect session for our DC-LP program, I mentioned a blog I follow that some may find interesting... The Rapid Elearning blog It's put together by a bloke named Tom Kuhlmann and, although he appears to be pedalling a certain software product, it nevertheless has some excellent material.
